Marco Young was a 23-year-old African-American man from Tulsa whose life ended in a burst of violence on the evening of December 23, 2007. He and a cousin went to a small house in west Tulsa on West 56th Place to pick up a friend. According to the surviving cousin’s account to police, an unknown person came out of the house and suddenly opened fire on their vehicle, wounding both men. The cousin drove them to OSU Medical Center, but Marco suffered a gunshot wound to the head and was pronounced dead at about 7:30 p.m.; the cousin survived.

Witness descriptions referenced at least two assailants in dark hooded clothing and an unknown figure emerging from the house. If anyone knew Marco, was in west Tulsa that night, or has information about the people seen near West 56th Place, please come forward.
